Chapter 10: 10

Rong Xuan was good at making small crafts and rather enjoyed these types of things. So it certainly wasn’t a difficult task for her to make a birthday card. She planned on making one side of the card three-dimensional, so that it would be special and feel sincere. Seeing that she needed flowers for some parts, she asked a classmate and the girl readily handed her some. These days she’s been working hard to improve her interpersonal relationships with those in her class and has gradually become close to them.

Tong Yue looked at her in amazement, “XuanXuan, I didn’t expect you to be so good at handicrafts.”

Rong Xuan smiled and continued preparing the gift, “These are pretty simple to do.” In addition to cards, she was able to fold thousands of paper cranes and make pretty little stars. At Hai Di Lao you can fold 80 cranes to get a free dish because of this she’s folded thousands by herself.

Tong Yue didn’t have the patience to learn these sorts of crafts, and since it didn’t cost much to just buy one from a store she doesn’t feel the need to learn. She didn’t want to waste her time, but maybe that’s because she hasn’t met someone who she was willing to waste her time for, but this didn’t stop here from looking at Rong Xuan with admiration. In fact, she’s seen a change in Rong Xuan these days, in fact she's been as gentle as a fairy, having lost her previous hostility.

When school was over, Rong Yi didn't get in the car.

Rong Xuan glanced at her. She was dressed very nicely today, it was clear that even in such cold weather she spared no effort to be beautiful. Wearing a short matte tender coa from C Family with a small skirt of the same color, she even had light makeup on, Rong Xuan couldn’t imagine what she was going to do.

Rong Yi stood outside the car and looked at Rong Xuan with an unclear expression, "Are you going home now?"

Rong Xuan returned a look to her not indicating otherwise..

Rong Yi breathed a sigh of relief, and a smile appeared on her face. It would be great if Rong Xuan went home immediately. She smiled and said to the driver, "You drive her home, I'll go back later."

The driver didn't ask much. He was a driver and he couldn't control the lady, and Rong Xuan would not treat her discourteously. After making sure Rong Yi was not getting in the car the diver left. After the car disappeared from the field of vision, Rong Yi greeted her girlfriends passionately and excitedly, planning to go to the high school where Gu Ye was to watch him play.

During the winter vacation there is the "New Century Cup" campus basketball league for high school students. These days Gu Ye would always go to the basketball court with Sheng Shihao after school. Although Hao Qiang and Ning Zichen don't participate in the game, they watch from the sidelines and cheer for Gu Ye. Gu Ye was destined to have an advantage in playing basketball, he was only 17 this year and already 1.85 meters (6ft) tall.

As soon as school was over, the basketball court was surrounded by students. In addition to the girls in this school, even students from other schools came to see Gu Ye play. No one dislikes beautiful things, men and women are the same in that way. Just being able to see Gu Ye’s appearance was well worth being on the edge of the basketball court, never mind him playing well.

A regular person may love to have people in constant admiration of them, but to Gu Ye, they were just flies that bothered him every day, a nuisance to say the least. In fact they’ve gotten so annoying that he’s recently prepared a contract for the nearest stadium so that outsiders can’t casually enter the practice.

All around him were girls, forever talking nonstop. At this moment he unconsciously thought of his little fiance. Every time she was with him she was quiet and unexcited yet still showed her fierceness. Even after she angered him with her thoughtless gift of money, she was at least better, and in a way cuter, than this group of girls.

Continuing to think of Rong Xuan, Gu Ye swiftly took the basketball from his opponent’s side. He faked out the player in front and continued to use his skill to bypass the others, he aimed, jumped, and threw the ball. The ball circled the rim until it finally fell through and scored the point. It wasn’t long into the game but Gu Ye already landed a shot! Various cheers rang from the sideline.

“Gu Ye is the best!” “Gu Ye, you’re so handsome!” “Baby, mother loves you!”

Gu Ye frowned slightly at the last sentence. He gestured to those on the court and continued off the court. He took his phone from Hao Qiang and sent Rong Xuan a message on WeChat.

On the sidelines, Rong Yi was watching his every move. Her best friend craned her neck curiously, “Hey, what is our God doing?”

Rong Yi bit her lower lip as her eyes filled with curiosity, she tried her best to stand on her toes, wanting to see what Gu Ye was doing, but there were many people in front of her and she wasn’t tall enough to see over them.

At this moment she hated herself for only being 1.6 meters (5.2ft), Rong Xuan was a few months younger than her, but was still 3 centimeters taller than her. Rong Yi didn’t know why but she got irritable and replied to the girl, “Why are you asking me, I don’t know.”

This is the first time that Gu Ye has left the court after only scoring a point, and it was to use his phone at that!

Other boys might use their phones if they were free, but Gu Ye was different from them. He’s always busy and hanging out with his friends, so he didn’t need to use his phone much, and he would never use his phone during practice.

What’s going on today?

Those watching from the sidelines were extremely curious and immediately looked harder to try and see his moves.

A girl caught a glimpse and said in a surprised tone, “Hey, it looks like Gu Ye opened up WeChat!”

Her friend replied immediately, “WeChat? Are you sure?”

She nodded confidently, “I’m sure, that has to be WeChat, there’s no possibilities.”

“Who is he messaging?”

“Maybe it’s his girlfriend?”

“He actually has a girlfriend?”

The girl was full of heartache and regret but continued to talk, “Don’t you see that there’s a ring on his finger?”

The ring on Gu Ye’s finger was impossible to miss. In fact, everyone had seen it but nobody had the courage to ask about it, afraid that the answer might disappoint them. Many girls like Gu Ye, but at most they were just star chasers, +girlfriend and wife fans+. If Gu Ye were to ever get a partner they would be heart broken.

“If he didn’t have a girlfriend why else would he wear the ring? For fun? He’s not that kind of person.”

Rong Yi’s face paled after hearing the conversation between the two. Gu Ye actually opened up WeChat. Who is messaging? Would it be that stupid sister of hers? 

No, it won't be.

It can’t be.

Rong Yi tried to comfort herself saying this wasn’t confirmed and must be a lie, she shouldn't scare herself.

Besides, with his personality it’s impossible for him to actually be sending a message to Rong Xuan. What could he even send, they don’t know each other well, and they definitely have nothing in common. So it’s definitely not what that girl said.

Meanwhile Rong Xuan was in her room finishing up with the card when her phone vibrated.

A new WeChat message.

She didn’t have many friends on WeChat, so who would be messaging her right now? Thinking this, she picked up her phone and opened it to find a message from Gu Ye, [Little Wife, I scored a goal.]

It was a simple sentence and there was nothing special to it. But when Rong Xuan read it, she felt that Gu Ye was sharing all his joy with her.

Translator Note:

Hai Di Lao -- This is a popular hot pot place in Singapore, they have a system where you can fold 20, 50, and 80 paper cranes and redeem them for drinks and side dishes, to redeem stars you have to fold 100. I looked it up while translating this and this place looks wonderful. You get free snacks while waiting in a cue, there's even a game section. The cranes and stars aren’t the only freebies around either. I would suggest looking it up because it is awesome from what I saw.

Girlfriend and wife fans -- Fans who picture/call themselves a favorite celebrities wife or girlfriend.

Baby, mother loves you! -- There are mother and father fans, that call their idols or favorite celebrities baby and the like. They aren’t necessarily older than the celebrity either.
